map updates for 2011 navigation systems?

Does anyone know anything about how Kia handles the navigation map updates with the factory installed systems? We asked the dealer and were told they are updated via satellite download. I suspect it is more of the typical internet download or cd/dvd update disc. The web is not providing much info and we didnt find much about it in the owners manual from the demo we had lastnight (picking up new car tonight).

Is this what we have to look forward to.

outdated map

Just got new Forte SX 2015 and map version 6 so if version 8 is just to be released I should have at least version 7. I think KIA is doing it on purpose with mapsoft giving them business as we have to update map even on new vehicle and pay $200 for it. In Europe it's free update for 7 years though.
